Welcome to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast where we discuss two of this week's mega releases - PONNIYIN SELVAN - 1 and VIKRAM VEDHA. But first, our musical correspondent Asim went to the Pasoori concert (04m20s) in London and has many thoughts about the production. Next, we saw the brand new teaser for ADIPURUSH (11m40s)starring Prabhas, Kriti Sanon, and Saif Ali Khan as Ram, Sita, and Raavan respectively and… it's quite something. Sujoy and Amrita both watched Mani Ratnam's Ponniyin Selvan (18m25s) - I starring Aishwarya Rai, Vikram, Karthi, Trisha, Jeyam Ravi, Prakash Raj, Jayaram and many others, and had slightly divergent thoughts while agreeing that it is a cinematic achievement. For those who're unfamiliar with the source material, we've worked out a strategy that you should first read the plot wiki before watching the film, just to keep up with all the characters. And lastly, all three of us watched Vikram Vedha(45m30s) starring Hrithik Roshan, Saif Ali Khan, and Radhika Apte. This (very loud) remake of the Tamil movie by its original directors is bound to work better for those who have not seen the version with Vijay Sethupathi and Madhavan. As a bonus, you can hear Asim interview the director duo Gayatri and Pushkar (1h16m20s) and Radhika Apte (1h28m10s)at the end of this episode.
